Chapter 120 The Lin Family's Tragic Situation: Misfortunes Never Come Small
An hour later.
The remaining guards and servants of the Lin family gradually woke up, and their masters also woke up one after another.
However, all the masters and servants of the Lin family had injuries, and some of their wounds had become seriously aggravated.
The physician immediately treated their wounds.
Lin Wufeng had the most and most severe injuries.
The most serious wound was very close to the heart, and coupled with excessive blood loss, the person was very weak.
"Big brother! It was definitely the Su family who secretly sabotaged us! We absolutely cannot let them get away with this!"
Lin Wuchong's arms and thighs had been stabbed, making it extremely difficult for him to move.
With the help of his servants, he sat down next to Lin Wufeng and then noticed that his elder brother's injuries were very serious, and his face was pale.
"Third Uncle, my father's condition is not good. All our supplies have been taken away, and without medicine, I'm worried that my father's injuries will worsen," Lin Jingchen said to Lin Wuchong with concern.
Lin Wuchong was so angry that he gritted his teeth and regretted his actions.
If they had known that the Su family would act so ruthlessly and without regard for the consequences, they should have taken immediate action to eliminate any future troubles!
"More than 600 guards ran away before we woke up, leaving behind only ordinary guards with poor skills."
"We are all injured and cannot travel for the time being. We can only stay in the village to recover first."
"Have the doctor take some people to the surrounding mountains to look for medicinal herbs, and send another group to see if they can catch some game and dig up some wild vegetables to solve their survival problem."
Lin Wuchong immediately assigned tasks.
"Okay, Third Uncle, I'll make the arrangements right away."
Lin Wuchong looked at his son and instructed, "Jingheng, this place is not suitable for everyone to recuperate. Go to the village and find a house with a better environment, and have the servants carry everyone there."
"Okay, Dad, I'll go right away."
“Jingxuan, we have no supplies at all right now. You take some men and search the entire village and collect anything usable.”
"Yes, Third Uncle, I understand." Lin Jingxuan understood his Third Uncle's meaning and immediately went to do it.
Fortunately, the sky is endless.
The Lin family servants ran up three mountains, caught several wild boars, and dug up some wild vegetables and herbs.
Water was slowly overflowing from the village wells, which saved the Lin family from certain death.
After a hearty meal, the Lin family finally regained some of their strength.
Madam Lin glared at Lin Wanwan with resentment, venting her anger on her, "Wanwan, is this what you meant by 'going towards Qinzhou won't be dangerous'?"
"Isn't this dangerous enough?! I really don't know why your father listens to a jinx like you!"
Lin Wanwan covered her bruised face with a cloth.
She put down her chopsticks and lowered her head, not daring to face the gazes of the Lin family members.
Lin Wuchong's gaze also turned towards them.
He also wanted to know the reason and hoped that Lin Wanwan would give a reasonable explanation.
Lin Wanwan glanced at her third uncle, indicating that it was inconvenient for him to say these things in front of the women in the family.
Lin Wuchong then realized that only a few people in the family knew about Lin Wanwan's ability.
He then stepped forward to mediate, "Sister-in-law, how can you blame Wanwan for this? You should go and take care of my brother, don't cause trouble here."
Madam Lin never expected her third brother to speak to her, his sister-in-law, in such a way.
What do you mean she's causing trouble?
She can't even question her own daughter anymore?
"Third brother, you've gone too far! Don't think that just because your eldest brother is seriously injured and unable to take charge, you can jump out and boss people around! Everyone can see through your little schemes!"
When Madam Wu, the third wife of Lin, saw her sister-in-law criticizing her husband, she immediately became restless.
"Dong Yating, shut up right now! Do you think the meat you're eating fell from the sky?"
"You may not have any other skills, but you've certainly mastered the art of cursing your mother after putting down your bowl!"
"If you dare insult my man again, I'll make sure your face is ruined beyond repair!"
Dong Yating hates it when people talk about her face.
Upon hearing her third sister-in-law mention her face, she immediately covered her face with her sleeve and ran away, cursing the person who had harmed her a hundred thousand times in her heart.
After dinner.
Lin Wuchong led Lin Wanwan to a main room and gestured for her to sit down and explain.
Lin Wanwan looked up at Lin Wuchong, then quickly lowered her head and whispered, "Third Uncle, this isn't my fault. If we hadn't clashed with the villagers and the Su family after we entered the village, none of this would have happened, right?"
Lin Wuchong was speechless.
indeed.
This didn't happen by chance, so Lin Wanwan can't be blamed.
"Have you had any dangerous dreams these past two days? Let's make plans as soon as possible," Lin Wuchong asked kindly, though he was holding his breath.
Lin Wanwan raised her head again, revealing half of her face that had been swollen from being beaten.
To this day, not a single member of the Lin family has come forward to inquire about the injury on her face.
No one cared about her or sought revenge for her.
Instead, they'll only take advantage of her.
Lin Wanwan couldn't help but feel a little twisted in her heart.
"Third Uncle, I did dream about it."
“I dreamt that a large number of rioters would pass by here in a few days, and some of them would find their way here. We need to leave here as soon as possible, otherwise we will clash with the rioters, which would be detrimental to our Lin family.”
Lin Wanwan still told Lin Wuchong about her precognitive dream.
She could still distinguish between what was important and what was urgent, so she didn't hide anything.
Lin Wuchong's expression turned even uglier upon hearing this.
It really is like when it rains it pours!
The Lin family members will need to recover from their injuries for at least a few more days before they can continue their journey, and the prey they have will only be enough for one meal at most.
What will they use to travel?
"Okay, I understand." Lin Wuchong gestured for Lin Wanwan to leave so he could think about his next steps.
.
Outdoor campsite.
"Brother Su, we'll be entering Qinzhou territory in just one more day," Gu Changfeng said to Su Yunhai, pointing to the map.
Su Yunhai nodded and said, "This road was relatively smooth; we didn't encounter any other refugees."
These two days.
The team from Peach Blossom Village did not encounter another incident where refugees looted their supplies.
But the number of refugees following behind them kept increasing.
The refugees who received the grain had almost used it all up.
Su Yunhai was worried that they would snatch the group again, so he kept speeding up and increasing the distance between them.
However, those refugees did not carry any supplies or heavy loads, and they were not left too far behind by the group.
The refugees followed them at a distance that was neither too close nor too far.
"Well, not many people know about this road, and it seems that not a large number of people in Qinzhou have started to flee the famine yet, so the situation is slightly better than expected," Gu Changfeng explained.
"However, the situation is not optimistic either. The river we passed during the day has been dry for a long time, so the drought in the Qin River is probably not good either. I wonder if we can still travel by water," Su Yunhai said worriedly.
Gu Changfeng also fell silent.
He couldn't be sure.
However, the Qin River is a large river, and it shouldn't dry up even if there is no rainfall for a year.
This will at least solve the team's water problem.
"Scholar Su, something terrible has happened! My child has suddenly fainted!"
